Do i have a solid chance?

I’m currently a senior and i just finished all of my applications. I’m just really stressed because I really want to get into my dream school. My dream school is USC, but my other top choices are UT Austin and NYU.

At USC, i applied for Media Arts + Practice, UT Austin for Arts & Entertainment Technologies, and NYU for Interactive digital media. So in the end, I would like to pursue a career in digital media.

SAT - 1370 (780 M, 590 CWR)

GPA - 3.68W/4.0 (my school doesn’t do unweighted)

Activities - Golf, Lacrosse, Managing Editor for Yearbook, VP of Technology for DECA, and Executive board member for Student council. I’ve also written for some newspapers, and I played piano and took art classes (for all years except senior year).

Other info: female, asian (indian), from Illinois

I’ve had a pretty rigorous course load, 9 AP’s and all honors classes.

I felt like my essays were really good, and I think my letters of rec were decent, but I really thought my creativity shined through in my usc sca application. But I’m just not sure if it will be enough.

All three would be reaches based on your GPA and SAT.

Do you have safeties? Can you afford to be full pay? I agree with TomSr that the three schools you mentioned are reaches.
